Congratulations!!! It's good that they have started issuing PER to December applicants. Hopefully things will go faster and faster from this point on (similar to last year, before we hit the big slumber that is the transition from Buffalo to Ottawa). Also note that, if you're going to school to Ontario, you will likely be eligible for international student fee exemption with the PER email (and also OHIP as well).
Thanks for sharing. Can you also tell us when you got your credit card charged? Also, did you only just use TA/RA as work experience? This also goes to all of the other people here with credit card information missing. Do you guys mind sharing this information if you can?
